We seek freedom in India, not from India: Kanhaiya after release

Hundreds of JNU students assembled near Ganga Dhaba in the campus after dinner to welcome their students’ union president Kanhaiya Kumar, who was released from judicial custody on interim bail in a sedition case. Mr Kumar was received by students with loud cheers and louder slogans.

The students took out a victory procession from Ganga Dhaba to various hostels and ended at the Administrative Block. Stairs of Administrative Block were occupied even before Mr Kumar’s arrival with other students.

The students continuously shouted slogans like "red salute (lal salam) to Comrade Kanhaiya" and "we want azaadi from RSS and BJP". He reached the Administrative Block at 10.15 pm and was received amid loud cheers and slogans of “azaadi”.
